RENOWNED KANSAS.

The State Journal, one of the fore
NEST newspapers of the great State of
Ohio, has been attracted by the WON
derful stories of the resources and
growth of Kansas, and after duly in
veStigating the subject, has the follow
ing good words to say OF our state:
Her soil is unsurpassed in fertility
by any on the continent. Situated in
the heart of the United States she has
command of the markets in every di-
rectiOn for the disposal of her products.
On the central highway between the
two oceans her means of cOmmunica-
ton with all parts of the Republic are
rapid and complete. Her internal sys-
tenn of railways promises almost liter
ally to bring a train of cars to every
mans doors. In 1886 there were near
ly 5000 miles of railway within her
borders, and nearly 200 miles have
been added since the beginning of the
present year. The climate for a
large portion of the year is fair
and mild as that of Italy, and
although in midwinter rude blasts
laden with snow occasionally sweep
over her plains, these but insure more
splendid harvests for the following
summer and give redoubled life and
yigor to the people. To whatever hon
est employment one turns his hand in
Kansas, and follows it with the energy
and industry becoming an American
and man, he is certain to reap due
reward.
1t is upon her soil, perhaps, exhaust
less as source of wealth, that Kansas
will mainly depend; but she offers one
of the fairest fields for manufacturing
enterprises that can be found in the
world, and already the value of her
manufactured products begin to as
sumo striking dimensions. They
amounted to over SIS, 600 900 in 1886:
they will probably run up to between
$50, 900 900 and SI00, 900 600 during the
present year. There is abundance of
water power in the state, and the
riches of the commonwealth in coal, as
well as in other minerals, are but be-
ginning to be known and developed.
"But Kansas has no timberl' Hasn't
she, though? How came it
then that during last year
nearly quarter of a million
dollars worth of native wood was cut
and Sold2 And then If she needs
than any other locality, and is in fact
doing this on large scale.
We do not want anyone to leave our
own Ohio; but we know that thous- |
ands do leave every year, perhaps
every month, for some portion of the |
great West; and to all such we can
candidly, and we believe truthfully, |
say, that to whatever pursuit they in |
tend TO devote their lives they can find |
no fairer home than In the land of |
Kansas. no scene of more picturesque |
and attractive beauty and no place in /
all our extended country that promises |
surer returns to industry, capital, So
briefly, energy and thrift. 30,

EMPoRIA, KANSAS, March 18th, 1887
R. M. Overstreet and N. b. Overstreet:
DEAR SIRs:-YOu are hereby notified that
the undersigned, County Surveyor of Lyon
County, Kansas, will, on the 10Th day of April,
1881, proceed to survey and establish in town
ship 19, range IL, the lines and corners of the
southeast quarter of the southeast quarter of
section Is, and such other lines and corners as
may be necessary to complete the work. This
curvey Is made upon request and notice re-
eived from G. W. Anderson.

that produced this season. During the
running of the works as high as one
hundred and thirty pounds of sugar
has been made, and the general aver
age has been one hundred and twenty
pounds of sugar and twelve gallons of
syrup to every ton of cane. In any or
binary year the cane will average twelve
tons to the acre the works pay the
farmer 81 per ton at the mill, the seed
will run about two bushels per ton,
worth fifty cents per bushel. So it can
easily be figured how very profitable
this crop is to the farmer. Yet you do
not want to be it too great a hurry, as
there are many things to consider.
First, owing to the shortness of the
season during which the works can be
run, anything much less than mill of
1 200 or 500 acres capacity would not
be largely profitable. AS the works
can be run but about three months,
enough profit must be made in that
time to pay for the idleness of the cost
ly machinery the other nine months
in the year. Such a plant will cost
about $50 900, and the company should
be organized with a capital of 800, 900
in order to have money to operate with,
buy cane, pay hands, etc. Secondly,
all the machinery of the business is in
the control of the Parkinson company,
but they are willing to aid any commu
nifty wanting works, and will take half
the stock in any concern so organized.
but as only few men, four or five,
have had the experience necessary to
rake hold, erect and run such a facto-
ty, you can see that the capacity to run
works is limited. Next year four or
five others will be erected, and each of
these will be under the charge of the
only five men in the country capable of
conducting them. These, however,
will educate others, and in couple of
years there will be enough men skilled
to support the demand in this state. 1t
is an industry that in consequence of
its scientific requirements must devel-
Ope slowly. Farmers must not rush
into the cane raising business unadvis-
eddy. 1t will only pay to haul cane I'M
der five miles, and when the factory is
established, the managers will indicate
the number of acres they can handle,
not to exceed l 800 to each works, and
all over that raised will be complete
